If the cops performed vigilante justice on Dorner, so what? He had it coming.

209. Vigilante Justice = Shoot First, ask Questions Later

If there were any doubt about the wrongness of police administering "street justice",
it should be obvious from the TWO instances of southern California police firing dozens of bullets
at pickup trucks that in no way resembled the suspect's vehicle,
and were driven by people who in no way resembled the suspect!

They were out for blood and shot at, and in the first instance, injured 2 newspaper delivery women.
In the second incident all of their shots missed the surfer they were targeting (which raises other questions).
Many shots also hit surrounding houses. One terrified homeowner called 911 to report his house was being shot at and was told the police were already there.

The police must never allow themselves to lose control like that,
and if they do, there needs to be a thorough house-cleaning.
